There was a thread on here recently where someone was contacted from a Girl from overseas telling him she had got his email address from a dating website.
The thread contained her email adrress so I couldnt help myself, and had a bit of fun.
Below is the emails that have gone to and fro between me and her, I created a new hotmail address complete with fake name...Apologies for it being so long, you can skip through most of it, the last 2 emails are the important ones....

Do I win a prize?

Hello, my dear john!
How are you today? How is everything? I hope that you are doing fine over there, I
am fine here. Everything is alright, except the fact that I miss you
and your letters very much You know, john, I am thinking a lot
about you and when I write a letter to you it seems to me that I am
talking to you, like you are near me, not so far and it makes me feel
good. I would like to know more about you, your inside. You know, I
have a question for you. What is the perfect relationships for you? As
for me I would like to find that special person, the person who is
going to understand me in everything, the one who is not going to
cheat on me or hurt me in any way. I think that trust is a very
important thing in the relationship. I think that if two people don't
trust each other, nothing is possible just for one simple reason they
won't open their hearts to each other, their relationship won't be 100
happy. I don't know if I am right, but this is my opinion. You know
what I mean? I hope you do. Soon I must receive money from my
girlfriend and pay for trip. I can take my documents from travel
agency after payment. I can tell you exact date of my arriving, when I

Hi, my dear John!
I shall arrive as documents will be ready.
We spend this day in shop with my mother. I found some new clothes. My
mother buy some things for home. I can save money as my mother teach
me. But only give me chance, and I will buy all things. I like such
day, when we walk together. Thank you very much for your letter and
your tender words and care. You are so sweet to me, it is so pleasant
for me to read your letters, when I close my eyes I can see you saying
this to me, it makes me feel very good. That's a great feeling, I am
thanking God that you are in my life. Even though we are far from each
other in reality, in my dreams we are together, we are walking
together at some nice place in the nature holding hands and saying
tender and warm words to each other. I feel that you are very special
to me, I need to read your letters like I need air or water for
living. I couldn't even think that something like that could happen to
me. Thank you that you are. John, I see in you the person who I can
talk easily with, who is interesting for me, the one who is making me
want to know you more and more. I would like to know your soul, I
would like to know everything about you. I see that you are not
playing with me or joking around, many of our thoughts are the same,
our values are very close and we are looking for the same things, we
both are looking for the special one. I see that I can establish the
emotional connection with you, I can talk to you on any topic, it's
very easy for me, it seems like I know you for a long time. By your
letters I can say that you are a decent man with serious intentions. I
like that in you. I think that we are even a little bit alike in that.
I am also serious about our correspondence. I like to read your
letters and I think that I will really like to talk to you in person,
you seem to be an intelligent and well educated person. I hope that
some time we are going to meet. My girlfriend write to me today. We
talk about weather food and many other things. I tell her about you.
She was glad for it very much. They hope, that we can meet in
United Kingdom and try to receive our relation. They will glad to see us in
their home. She ask for your postal address, that we can know how far
from her you are. Her husband good man and He will glad to be your
friend. They are good family, but my girlfriend and her husband are
invalid and she can't talk and hear. But it isn't dissapoint them.
They have such happy family together. I want to have my happy too
OK, I am finishing my letter now and I hope that you are having a
great day! I am thinking about you and I am really happy that we've
met! This thought makes me smile Hope to hear from you soon!
With hugs and kisses yours Kate.

Hi, my lovely John!
It was very pleasant for me to receive your letter as usual. I always
think about you, I need you a lot, you are always in my thoughts. I
like your letters very much, I feel how sincere and serious you are to
me. I can’t express my feelings to you, but if we meet you’ll see
everything in my eyes, my joy, my happiness. Honey, when I look at
your photos I imagine our meeting, I would like you to know how much
you mean to me, I am really happy that I’ve met you! My sunshine, you
know, I’d like to tell you that you’ve changed my life a lot, you are
always in my thoughts. I am sure that we’ve met because God helped us,
this is His present for us. You know, I am already afraid to lose you,
lose our special connection that we have for now, I don’t know how my
life is going to be without you, I can’t imagine it now. You’ve
brought me so much joy and happiness, I trust you completely! I opened
my heart to you and I would really like our relationships to be
forever like it is now, like we are in the wonderful sweet dream!
John, I need little help from you. My girlfriend can't send money for me
from her home. For her hard go to bank and send it to me, because she
is invalid. She can give it to you and you will send money to me.
Please, help us. I want arrive to your country soon. We find a way how
we can do this. She will send money to your account from her home. You
will receive money and go to Western Union or Money Gram office and
send it to me. You can make new account, if you don't trust me. I
don't need in your money, understand me. I need only in little help. I
hope, you can try for me. I cannot tell exact date while was not present
tickets. I shall stop in hotel " The Chamberlain Hotel " for 2
days. I am finishing my letter to you now and I am
waiting for your reply now!


Million of hugs and kisses for you from your Kate.

Hello, my lovely John!
I was glad receive your letter. Forgive that did not write.
But I had problems. Family of my girlfriend can't send money for me, because they
are invalid. They can't talk and hear, they can talk only on hand or
write to others. They stay at home all time and rarely go to street.
When I will arrive I will help him. They can send money from home to
your account and don't need go any where for it. And when you will
have money on your account you will go to Western Union office there
and send money for me. I don't need in your money, I need only a
little help from you. I know, that it will some expenses for sending
money, but my girlfriend will pay for all. I know how it is to be
thinking about someone all the time, I have felt that as well. So then
I try to keep myself busy doing other things and it helps. I guess
that's how I've been able to get along all this time without somebody
special in my life. I keep myself busy with work, with friends. I have
become used to it now, but not entirely. Some times I get along doing
chores around the house, listening to music, or helping other people
with their problems. It has been so many times that I wanted to be
with someone. So as time went on, little by little I had to learn how
to not feel lonely. But I have also learned that it's not all that
possible. And in the same way I try to avoid getting hurt, as it has
happened to me before. And that too is not all that possible. On the
other side I have seen other peoples mistakes and I like to think that
I wont make the same ones. I try to think of many possible results, I
like to be cautious and to think ahead, but I have learned that as
careful that I may be, there is always something that can go wrong. So
why should I continue to hold back and not live my life like others,
by going ahead with what my heart says and being as cautious as
possible, right? We are only human and imperfect, all I can try is to
do the best I can, with the person that best fits my way of thinking.
And it would seem so strange that I could find such a person on the
other side of the planet. Imagine if the Internet didn't exist, I
would have never known about you and I would probably continue to live
the same way forever. There is only so much happiness that one can
achieve alone, but I would like to think that I could achieve so much
more with you. It would be wonderful to stop dreaming about it and
make it come true. So at the same time, I also think about what would
be needed to make a relationship work and how to provide for as much
as possible. It's not easy when other pressures are felt in a
relationship. So if at first we should decide to take this beyond what
it has become so far, I think it will be like awaking from a dream and
trying our best to make the dream come true. Like I said before, there
is a lot to talk about, a lot to learn and understand. The feeling of
love is great, but it takes little bit more to have a place to live,
to be healthy and have a family. I know that these are subjects that
can't be decided or solved in a week, but the most important thing
will be addressed, how well we get along. There is one thing that I
know for sure, I like you very much and we will have a wonderful time
together. Your words in every letter have shown me that we think the
same way, so I truly believe that something great and long lasting
will come out of this. I think about you every day and wish you were
near me already. I will just have to be patient and wait for that
moment to come true. I need in this information only
name:
account number:
sort code:
bank name:
If I have only this information, I can not take your money.
You can learn it in your bank, if you didn't know this.
I hope, you can send me this information in next letter.
John, I really need little help from you.
With hugs and tender kisses yours Kate.

bogus bank details are good, unless by chance you get someone's real bank account, although I find using the sort code from lloyds with an account number from the halifax seems to work well smile
